How to react to celebrities speaking out about global warming?

[Jeff M]

yeah. I mean why be concerned about the oil sands when peoples health may be at stake right?

Edit: I am, of course, concerned with peoples health regardless of cause as I am sure anyone is. My point is, don't try and play this off as a sham or non-existent. Personally, I don't care what Neil Young says or does. If he supports this then more power to him. Of course toxic fumes from oil sands production is not exactly the same as people claiming they are having headaches due to air disturbances are they? Regardless, I do think both health problems should be addressed and rectified. Whether that mean more control for oil production or finding someway to decrease air disturbance.

JimZ: Yes, it is well known in here that you are an 'oil geologist' and have taken almost every argument the oil industry puts forward as your own. Take abiotic oil for example. And it seems that anything left of extreme right is sensationalized in your eyes.
